The
people
had
a
single
aim
:
to
free
their
land
from
invasion
.
That
aim
was
attained
in
the
first
place
of
itself
,
as
the
French
ran
away
,
and
so
it
was
only
necessary
not
to
stop
their
flight
.
Secondly
it
was
attained
by
the
guerrilla
warfare
which
was
destroying
the
French
,
and
thirdly
by
the
fact
that
a
large
Russian
army
was
following
the
French
,
ready
to
use
its
strength
in
case
their
movement
stopped
.
The
Russian
army
had
to
act
like
a
whip
to
a
running
animal
.
And
the
experienced
driver
knew
it
was
better
to
hold
the
whip
raised
as
a
menace
than
to
strike
the
running
animal
on
the
head
.
When
seeing
a
dying
animal
a
man
feels
a
sense
of
horror
:
substance
similar
to
his
own
is
perishing
before
his
eyes
.
But
when
it
is
a
beloved
and
intimate
human
being
that
is
dying
,
besides
this
horror
at
the
extinction
of
life
there
is
a
severance
,
a
spiritual
wound
,
which
like
a
physical
wound
is
sometimes
fatal
and
sometimes
heals
,
but
always
aches
and
shrinks
at
any
external
irritating
touch
.

After
Prince
Andrew
's
death
Natásha
and
Princess
Mary
alike
felt
this
.
Drooping
in
spirit
and
closing
their
eyes
before
the
menacing
cloud
of
death
that
overhung
them
,
they
dared
not
look
life
in
the
face
.
They
carefully
guarded
their
open
wounds
from
any
rough
and
painful
contact
.
Everything
:
a
carriage
passing
rapidly
in
the
street
,
a
summons
to
dinner
,
the
maid
's
inquiry
what
dress
to
prepare
,
or
worse
still
any
word
of
insincere
or
feeble
sympathy
,
seemed
an
insult
,
painfully
irritated
the
wound
,
interrupting
that
necessary
quiet
in
which
they
both
tried
to
listen
to
the
stern
and
dreadful
choir
that
still
resounded
in
their
imagination
,
and
hindered
their
gazing
into
those
mysterious
limitless
vistas
that
for
an
instant
had
opened
out
before
them
.
Only
when
alone
together
were
they
free
from
such
outrage
and
pain
.
They
spoke
little
even
to
one
another
,
and
when
they
did
it
was
of
very
unimportant
matters
.
Both
avoided
any
allusion
to
the
future
.
To
admit
the
possibility
of
a
future
seemed
to
them
to
insult
his
memory
.
Still
more
carefully
did
they
avoid
anything
relating
to
him
who
was
dead
.
It
seemed
to
them
that
what
they
had
lived
through
and
experienced
could
not
be
expressed
in
words
,
and
that
any
reference
to
the
details
of
his
life
infringed
the
majesty
and
sacredness
of
the
mystery
that
had
been
accomplished
before
their
eyes
.

Continued
abstention
from
speech
,
and
constant
avoidance
of
everything
that
might
lead
up
to
the
subject
--
this
halting
on
all
sides
at
the
boundary
of
what
they
might
not
mention
--
brought
before
their
minds
with
still
greater
purity
and
clearness
what
they
were
both
feeling
.
But
pure
and
complete
sorrow
is
as
impossible
as
pure
and
complete
joy
.
Princess
Mary
,
in
her
position
as
absolute
and
independent
arbiter
of
her
own
fate
and
guardian
and
instructor
of
her
nephew
,
was
the
first
to
be
called
back
to
life
from
that
realm
of
sorrow
in
which
she
had
dwelt
for
the
first
fortnight
.
She
received
letters
from
her
relations
to
which
she
had
to
reply
;
the
room
in
which
little
Nicholas
had
been
put
was
damp
and
he
began
to
cough
;
Alpátych
came
to
Yaroslávl
with
reports
on
the
state
of
their
affairs
and
with
advice
and
suggestions
that
they
should
return
to
Moscow
to
the
house
on
the
Vozdvízhenka
Street
,
which
had
remained
uninjured
and
needed
only
slight
repairs
.
Life
did
not
stand
still
and
it
was
necessary
to
live
.
Hard
as
it
was
for
Princess
Mary
to
emerge
from
the
realm
of
secluded
contemplation
in
which
she
had
lived
till
then
,
and
sorry
and
almost
ashamed
as
she
felt
to
leave
Natásha
alone
,
yet
the
cares
of
life
demanded
her
attention
and
she
involuntarily
yielded
to
them
.
She
went
through
the
accounts
with
Alpátych
,
conferred
with
Dessalles
about
her
nephew
,
and
gave
orders
and
made
preparations
for
the
journey
to
Moscow
.
